General John Abizaid, the top US military officer in the Persian Gulf, must hate our troops. He said the Iraqi insurgency is still strong according to AP:
The top American commander in the Persian Gulf told Congress on Thursday that the Iraqi insurgency has not grown weaker over the past six months, despite a claim by Vice President Dick Cheney that it was in its "last throes."When will we hear Karl Rove say: Has there ever been a more revealing moment this year? Let me just put this in fairly simple terms: Al Jazeera now broadcasts the words of General Abizaid to the Mideast, certainly putting our troops in greater danger. No more needs to be said about the motives of liberal generals.
Of course, the amazing thing is that the General told the truth at all. Probably a demotion in his future.
